DRUIDS’ Waynne Phillips demanded to know where referee Simon Jones found almost 10 minutes of stoppage time for the clash with his old club at Caernarfon.

Because it was seven minutes into the Swansea official’s bonus spell that Town grabbed an equaliser to ensure a split of the points.

Phillips said: “We always click a stopwatch at the start of every half and that second half lasted 54 minutes 48 seconds, which is unheard of anywhere.

“Admittedly, there were two substitutions by each side and the physios came on a lot but the time lost was not to that extent and it cost us two points.

“Having gone ahead midway in the half and holding on at 1-0 with 94 or 95 minutes played, any team would expect to win but 97, when they scored, and then 99-plus, when it ended, was ridiculous.”

Caernarfon’s manager Steve O’Shaughnessy said: “We were the better team overall but they caught us on the break to score their goal and then we put on a bit of pressure to get what we deserved in the end.”

But O’Shaughnessy was far from happy after he was dismissed from the dug-out by the referee in the closing stages.

After a great deal of woeful play by both teams, Druids went ahead on 73 minutes, with sub Osian Jones’s six-yard finish after a Kevin Holsgrove left-wing cross.

Caernarfon’s late leveller, timed at 97 minutes, came from John Rowley’s goalmouth header, which converted James Thomas’s in-swinging corner from the right.
